A mass $M$ is suspended by two springs of force constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively as shown in the diagram. The total elongation (stretch) of the two springs is
A$\frac{{Mg}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}$
B$\frac{{Mg\,({K_1} + {K_2})}}{{{K_1}{K_2}}}$
C$\frac{{Mg\,{K_1}{K_2}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}$
D$\frac{{{K_1} + {K_2}}}{{{K_1}{K_2}Mg}}$

B$\frac{{Mg\,({K_1} + {K_2})}}{{{K_1}{K_2}}}$
b (b)For series combination ${k_{eq}} = \frac{{{k_1}{k_2}}}{{{k_1} + {k_2}}}$
$F = {k_{eq}}x \Rightarrow mg = \left( {\frac{{{k_1}{k_2}}}{{{k_1} + {k_2}}}} \right)x$$ \Rightarrow x = \frac{{mg({k_1} + {k_2})}}{{{k_1}{k_2}}}$

A man measures the period of a simple pendulum inside a stationary lift and finds it to be $T$ sec. If the lift accelerates upwards with an acceleration $\frac{g}{4}$, then the period of the pendulum will be
A particle executes linear simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of $2\, cm$. When the particle is at $1\, cm$ from the mean position the magnitude of its velocity is equal to that of its acceleration. Then its time period in seconds is
Two masses ${m_1}$ and ${m_2}$ are suspended together by a massless spring of constant k. When the masses are in equilibrium, ${m_1}$ is removed without disturbing the system. Then the angular frequency of oscillation of ${m_2}$ is
A man having a wrist watch and a pendulum clock rises on a $TV$ tower. The wrist watch and pendulum clock per chance fall from the top of the tower. Then
A circular arc of mass $m$ is connected with the help of two massless strings as shown in the figuw in vertical plane. About point $P$, small oscillations are given in the plane of the arc. Time period of the oscillations of $SHM$ will be
What is the velocity of the bob of a simple pendulum at its mean position, if it is able to rise to vertical height of $10cm$ ......... $m/s$ (Take $g = 9.8\,m/{s^2})$
Two simple pendulum whose lengths are $1\,m$ and $121\, cm$ are suspended side by side. Their bobs are pulled together and then released. After how many minimum oscillations of the longer pendulum will the two be in phase again
